Expression of the tumor-rejection antigen SART1 in brain tumors.

Abstract

We have reported a tumor-rejection antigen, SART1(259), possessing tumor epitopes capable of inducing cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in epithelial-cancer patients. This study investigated the expression of SART1(259) antigen in brain tumors, to explore for a potential molecule for use in specific immunotherapy of patients with brain tumors. The SART1(259… (More)
